Olof Johansson e057d985fd [POWERPC] Make smp_send_stop() handle panic and xmon reboot
smp_send_stop() will send an IPI to all other cpus to shut them down.
However, for the case of xmon-based reboots (as well as potentially some
panics), the other cpus are (or might be) spinning with interrupts off,
and won't take the IPI.

Current code will drop us into the debugger when the IPI fails, which
means we're in an infinite loop that we can't get out of without an
external reset of some sort.

Instead, make the smp_send_stop() IPI call path just print the warning
about being unable to send IPIs, but make it return so the rest of the
shutdown sequence can continue. It's not perfect, but the lesser of
two evils.

Also move the call_lock handling outside of smp_call_function_map so we
can avoid deadlocks in smp_send_stop().
